Dufisthenics

I have left pull ups out of my workouts for 2-3 weeks because of the left forearm discomfort I have been feeling while doing them.  Today I reintroduced them via sets of 10 at a time.  The first set was the worst as far as discomfort goes.  I may have gone overboard though.  I have a feeling the six sets of pull ups combined with inverted bodyweight shoulder shrugs might have some residual effects on that forearm.

Oh today a major first occurred.  Somebody up front actually turned the music volume DOWN without me requesting it.  Bravo.
